Using the closed caption decoder

E>Important:

L>Important:

E>Important:

Many broadcasters now supply closed captioning information along with their regular broadcasts. Your TV can decode that information

and display it on the TV screen.

There are two types of captioning that broadcasters can send: "standard" and "text."

Standard captioning is related to the program that is being' shown. Standard captioning usually follows the dial ogue of the

characters on-screen.

Text captioning often contains information such as weather or news. Text captioning blocks out your view of the program you are watching.

Your TV can decode four different "standard captioning" signals and four different "text captioning" signals from ,each TV station. However, each station may be broadcasting only one or two captioning signals, or none at all.

When setting the decoder you can choose:

• to display one of four "standard captioning" signals ( _0] :1, D :2, [0_]:3, _ :4),

• to display one of four "text captioning" signals ( _ : Text 1, C_ :

Text 2, _¢7 : Text 3, _ : Text 4),

• to display captions when muting ( _ : When Muting),

• or to turn the captions off ( [] ::Off).

If you select "_-07: When Muting," the standard captioning signal ( [] :1) will appear whenever you use the MUTE button.

If you set the decoder to a "standard" caption setting and tune, to a broadcaster that is not sending a caption signal, :no captions will appear.

If you set the decoder to a "text" setting and tune to a broadcaster' that is not sending a text signal, a large black rectangle will block:

your screen.

The content of captions are determined by the broadcaster. If your captions show strange characters, misspellings, or odd grammar, it is not a malfunction of the Projection TV.

uses for closed captioning

Closed capl:ioning was i_itially designed so that those with hearing difiSculties could more

fillly enjoy viewing television.

However, closed captioning can also be used in other ways, such as:

• helping children learn to read,

• learning a foreign language, and

• using the television without disturbing others.

_Important: If you cannot display any captions on the screen, please keep in

mind that not all broadcasters, video tapes, or laserdiscs supply closed caption signals.

Additionally, captions might not appear:

• if you are playing a video tape that is worn or deteriorated, or

• if you are starting to play a laserdisc from still or search mode.

Using the Advanced Picture-in-Picture (PIP) :Modes 67

Changing the picture in the PIP image

When you first activate the PIP image, as described on the previous page, you will probably see the same picture in the small image as you do on the main image. This is because both images have the

same "source." A "source" is any signal that your TV is receiving through the antenna terminals or through the input terminals.

If you want to see a different picture in the PIP image, you need to change its channel or change its source.

changing the channels of the PIP image

Because your Projection TV offers "two-tuner" PIP, you do not need to change sources to view a differ- ent channel in the PIP image.

O Make sure Antenna A is the

source for ygur PIP image.

O Press the small PIP channel

button (CI-L_qNEL) on the lower half of your remote to change tl_e channel of the PIP image.

DImportant: To use the "two-tuner" PIP, you :must have made a connection to

the Antenna A terminal on your Projection TV.

68 Chapter 3: Using the Special Features

_Important:

changing the source of the PIP image

These instructions explain a common way to see a different source in the PIP image: using a VCR connected to Iaput-1 as a PIP source.

The A/V Network is a special feature that makes it easier to use your Projection TV and your other Mitsubi,_hi A/V components together. When you connect the A/V Network, you can point the remote control at the Projection TV, and it will "pass" the remote

control command to the other components.

Additionally, if you have a Mitsubishi VCR with Active APV"Net-

work, it is easier and faster VCR's play command (Auto Play).

The A/V Network is only available for select Mitsubishi components. If you subscribe to StarSight, ':'Auto Play" is not

available.

before you begin

You must have connected an A/V Network cable from the Active A/V Network terminal of your Projection l.W to the A/V Network

IN terminal of your VCR. See Booklet #1, "Mitsubishi

Installation and Setup Guide."

J You must have connected your VCR to Input 1 of your TV. J You must have set your Projection TV's "._JV Network" setting

to "Active" or "Basic." See "Setting the ._dV Network," page 32.

J Your VCR's remote control switch should 5e set to '_CR-A." J Your VCR's video mute setting should be _urned ON.

When using the Active A/V Network, you shoald always point your

Using Auto Play

When you press PLAY on the remote:

•/ Active A/V Network will turn your VCR on and begin playing the tape (if any).

J Active A/V Network will turn your TV on and switch it to

When you turn your Projection TV off:

€" If your TV has been set to "Active," your VCR will turn off,

unless it is playing or recording.

If you leave the Projection TV turned on and:

- it is set to Input-l, and

- it does not receive a signal for five minutes, and

- you do not use the menus for five minutes, then:

DO NOT allow liquid to enter the TV through the ventilation slots.

DO NOT use strong or abrasiw_ cleaners.

DO NOT use spray liquids or cleaners directly on the TV's surface.

DO NOT scrub or rub the TV harshly. Wipe gently.

DO NOT use cleaners or detergent on the Projection TV's screen.

Troubleshooting 81

Caution and care

,Warning: Don't leave stationary images on-screen for more than 10 minutes.

These images can scar the Projection TV, causing permanent damage to the picture tubes. Some examples of stationary images include the following:

• stock-market reports,

• station logos (especially bright ones),

• video game displays,

• shopping channel displays,

• the television's own on-screen displays.

_Important:

E>Important:

If you plan to place speakers next to the Projection TV, make

sure they are magnetically shielded. Ordinary speakers will

cause distortion in the picture due to their strong magnets. This

distortion, however, will not harm the picture tubes.

For maximum enjoyment and safe operation of your Mitsubishi

Color TV, please read the "IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS" carefully and apply them properly. (Please see Booklet #1, "Mitsubishi

Installation and Setup Guide.")

When you are disconnecting AV cables from the front control panel, be careful not to hit or scratch the front of your Projection TV. (TS-
